Series 5 Magnesium Low Profile Fluid 3Way Head

USD$ 334.99

The G1570M low profile head, is made of ultra light magnesium. The distance from the top of the tripod to the camera platform is reduced in order to ensure that the camera's center of gravity is kept over the middle of the tripod to avoid the possibility of overbalancing.

Safe Grip is a material that gives a safer lock between your camera and the head plate, preventing the camera from moving or slipping. It is used on quick release plates and in applications where the camera equipment is screwed to the support to reduce pivoting and twisting.

When using a ball head, the ability to lock and unlock the panoramic movement independent of front-back or lateral tilt movements is convenient for panoramic photography and when a high level of control is required.

The new leveling system made of three independent leveling bubbles on the quick release plate and one in the ball stem, always guarantee perfectly leveled images. The problem that affects many high quality heads in the market regarding drift angle is absolutely minimized with an outstanding value of 0,03°.
